Mileage Run Discussion - Help in Decoding UA Fare Routing Rules (Planning Mileage Runs)?

Can someone with ExpertFlyer access post or PM me the routing rules for the following fare?

BLXNCGBW
LHR-SFO-LHR

If you need dates, put in outbound March 24 and return May 24.

Thanks!

I don't have ExpertFlyer, but can't you just click on the "Fare Rules" section above the flight and it will open a box giving you this information on .bomb?

United does not supply routing rules.

Maybe I posted in the wrong place -- should this be in the MR Discussion thread? (Mods?)

I just pulled the legal routings for this fare and it's literally like 15 pages of connecting cities long, as long as you're not backtracking you should be fine...

Yes, but the question is, what is backtracking? For example, it appears I can do LHR-ORD-MIA-IAD-SFO, but not LHR-LAX-DEN-SFO. And what about going through the same city twice?

It would be nice to have the rules in front of me so I don't have to play a guessing game with .bomb.

Let's try it over there, with a new title as well.

I agree shell out a few $ and then you are able to then help others as well. ^

There you go:


Thanks!

I figured for one request I could get help from someone. If I need to know more I'll shell out the $$. (Though probably not for KVS since I'm Mac-based...sorry!)
